Potential Dolphins draft prospects withdraw from Senior Bowl

While the Miami Dolphins and the rest of the league are looking to get a look at some of the NFL draft’s top prospects at the Senior Bowl, three expected participants have withdrawn from the event.

Potential early picks Utah linebacker Devin Lloyd, Penn State wide receiver Jahan Dotson, and Georgia running back James Cook will not take part in this year’s Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama.

Lloyd is considered the best prospect of the three, with most draft experts predicting him to go in the top 20. In his four seasons with Utah, he recorded 256 tackles, 15.5 sacks, and five interceptions. His ability to tackle and cover makes him an interesting target for Miami who could be looking for help at the position.

Dotson has been mocked to the Dolphins a few times during this early part of the pre-draft process. At 5-foot-11, he’s not the big outside target that DeVante Parker is, but he makes up for it with his route-running that allows him to create separation quickly.

Cook, the younger brother of Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook, played four years at Georgia, recording 1,503 yards and 14 touchdowns while averaging 6.5 yards per carry. He also has shown some ability to assist in the receiving game. Cook isn’t expected to be taken in the first, but the following two rounds should be his sweet spot.

With the Dolphins having the No. 29 overall pick in the first round as well as a second and third-round pick, all three players should be on Miami’s radar for selection. They’ll just have to wait to get a closer look at them.
